I live in Dallas and it is scorching hot, usually over 100 in july/august .
the lacrilube just runs out of my eye because its so hot and drops [refresh] only work for maybe 10 minutes before i have to put more in, anybody have any suggestions ?
whatever i use has to be preservative free, i thought about keeping the lube in the fridge but i work outside .

It got REALLY hot and DRY in Amarillo and never had any trouble - I just put Refresh PM in once at night and once in the morning right after my shower...
If I think of anything I will let you know...Good Luck!

Hi John: as K said, Refresh PM ointment is my saving grace. I still use it as often as necessary since I have total paralysis. Keep your cornea protected buddy.
Always good thoughts, Nancy

I was told by opthomologist - on a "good day" one drop of refresh 4 times a day. On a bad day - as often as needed. But only one drop at a time. I was "flooding" my eye for the past six months, but find much more relief with one drop at a time. Have dry eye severe on surgery side. Only slightly on good side. As I love to quilt and read - this sure slows me down. Doc plugged my bottom tear duct, not sure I see alot of improvement. I feel like I need new lenses and I just got new ones in Nov. Deaf on one side and slowly going blind (at least that is how it feels some days).

My eye runs like a faucet when I sweat, so the hotter it is, the moister my eye stays. You win some, you lose some... LOL
